Combining multiple materials, Hybrid Dust Plugs are designed to meet complex sealing applications. A foam pad is used where straight compression sealing is needed with pile is used where active sealing is needed and the surface being sealed against is moveable, the supplier explains. From Ultrafab Inc., the plugs can can be supplied on a reel, kiss cut for quick removal from a continuous backing material, or cut to length and ready to install. Multiple adhesive options are available so that the plugs can be used on a wide range of substrate materials. High performance 3M foamed adhesives for vinyl surfaces and hot melt adhesive for wood surfaces are utilized for the most demanding applications, the company notes. In addition to standard offerings, the company will work with designers and engineers to develop custom dust plugs with multiple sealing capabilities to overall window or door performance.
